14
And
when they were come, they say unto him, Master, we know that thou art
true, and carest for no man: for thou regardest not the person of
men, but teachest the way of God in truth: Is it lawful to give
tribute to Caesar, or not?
15
Shall
we give, or shall we not give? But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said
unto them, Why
tempt ye me? bring me a penny, that I may see it.
16
And
they brought it. And he saith unto them, Whose
is this image and superscription?
And they said unto him, Caesar's.
17
And
Jesus answering said unto them, Render
to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that
are God's.
And they marveled at him.
Mark
12:14-17 KJV
~~~~~~~~~~~
We
have an obligation to the world
To
give unto the rulers what is theirs.
Whatever
flag above us is unfurled,
Obey
that government; give them their shares.
We
can't forsake this world while we are here,
And
still employ the money of the land.
Rebel
and soon officials will appear
Reminding
us the debt we owe at hand.
So
render unto Caesar what is his,
And
render unto God what's His as well.
If
you think taxes are too high as is,
Then
use the laws to change it where you dwell.
No
matter what the levy is, just pay,
